For the linear chain of six carbon atoms, use the one‑dimensional particle‑in‑the‑box model to calculate the energy needed to promote an electron from the ?=5n=5 to ?=6n=6 level. Assume that each carbon–carbon bond is 139 pm in length.
A Rydberg atom is an atom whose valence electrons are in states with a very large principal quantum number n. This means it has a probability cloud with a large amplitude a large distance from the nucleus. Evidence of such atoms has been detected by radio astronomers in the form of radiation from diffuse hydrogen gas in intersellar space. In fact, there is no theoritical limit on the size an atom can attain, provided it is free from outside influences....
Model the electron in a hydrogen atom as a particle in a one-dimensional box with side length 150 pm. What wavelength of radiation would be emitted when the electron falls from n=3 to n=2? Repeat the calculation for the transition from n=4 to n=2. Compare the results with the corresponding transitions for the Bohr model.
7. π electron is an electron which resides in the pi bond(s) of a double bond or a triple bond, or in a conjugated p orbital. The 1,3,5-hexatriene molecule is a conjugated molecule with 6 t electrons. Consider the Tt electrons free to move back and forth along the molecule through the delocalized pi system. Using the particle in a box approximation, treat the carbon chain as a linear one-dimensional "box". Allow each energy level in the box to hold...
3. [5] Retinal consists of a chain of carbon atoms roughly 1.5 nm long. Electrons in this long chain molecule behave very much like particles in a box The retinal molecule is a linear molecule that has 12 electrons that are free to move about the chain According to the Pauli exclusion principle, when this molecule is in its ground state, these 12 electrons fill the first 6 states of the box. Thus, the lowest energy photon that can be...

A Rydberg atom is one in which an electron is in a very high excited state (n 40 or higher). Such atoms are useful for experiments that probe the transition from quantum- mechanical behavior to classical. Furthermore, these excited states have extremely long lifetimes (i.e., the electron will stay in this high excited state for a very long time). A hydrogen atom is in the n47 state. (a) What Is the lonization energy of the atom when it is in...
Consider a one-dimensional tight binding model of electrons hopping between atoms. Let the distance between atoms be called a, and here let us label the atomic orbital on atom ln) for n-1,..,N (you may assume orthonormality of orbitals, ie., (1m)- nm). n as Suppose there is an on-site energy e and a hopping matrix element -t. In other words, suppose (IH|m) = E for n-m and (1비m)=-t for n=m±1. (a) Derive and sketch the dispersion curve for electrons. (b) How...
